What's mildly irritating you today?

It's not programming. I end up writing 300 lines of code and 10,000 lines of XSLT, and spend hours futzing with XML configurations.

I'd leave, but I've already switched jobs twice this year (made a huge upgrade in jobs, but they started missing payroll and I moved to the place I'm at now). Won't have a choice, if I get fired.
